	THE GIRL BY THE LAKE
	It is eight o’clock in the morning when Marta, biting a doughnut, is returning home after having slept at her aunt’s house. A truck stops: Mario, a mentally-challenged local young man, convinces her to follow him to his farm. The alarm immediately goes off as Marta is only six years old. Inspector Sanzio, an experienced policeman, who recently moved to that remote area comes to the town. The younger colleague Siboldi, native to those valleys, becomes his guide and helps him to know the family ties and relationships of that small community. The two of them, accompanied by Alfredo, Sanzio’s loyal collegue since his time in homicide, will have to stay in town because another crime is about to be committed; a crime probably connected to one of the families in the village, born from a sentimental or emotional tie. Based on the novel "Don’t look Back" by Karin Fossum.
